VANCOUVER, BRITISH COLUMBIA--(Marketwired - April 8, 2015) - Prospero Silver Corp. (TSX VENTURE:PSL) ("Prospero" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has signed a binding agreement dated April 2, 2015 (the "Agreement") with CIC Resources Inc., a privately-held company incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands ("CIC") pursuant to which Prospero granted CIC an option on the El Petate property in Hidalgo State, Mexico.

Under the terms of the Agreement, CIC has the option to earn a 56% interest within 4 years by incurring total property expenditures of $4.0 million, including a minimum of 3,500 meters of drilling, making total cash payments of $1.1 million and issuing 2.0 million "Resulting Issuer" shares (details below).
